Flypast in The Mall

[ou Trek dronkie]

Hi,

Does anyone know where I might find some videos or similar of the recent flypast down The Mall ? (The "Poppy drop").

I was there in time for the RAF missing man formation (so beautiful) but didn't have the box brownie ready, but I did manage to take a couple of fairly reasonable stills of the B17, Dominies etc. If anyone wants, just PM me.

I found nothing on the BBC.

Thanks.

It was televised live by the beeb, but they actually missed the missing man manouvre (I presume that was the Jags?). Just a couple of shots of their run in.

The rest of the fly past was covered well apart from the expert commentators not being able to tell an Anson apart from a Dakota...

Your only hope is that BBC Worldwide decides to issue a commemorative DVD...it's worth asking them about it, so they can note some interest.

Thanks for that,

Yes, it was the Jags, they went past at 1600, on the button.

I'll try the shop, plus a BBC contact I have.
